Tip: Cleaning dust filters

[.Ox.]

You choose.

Kitten...

or Airflow...

I take the filter out and blow into it from both sides, thus shortening my lifespan as I inevitably inhale some of the dust.

I rinse mine under the tap. Works well

Same here!

+1 for compressed air, gets rid of the dust in no time.

 

[SeraphX]

new wallpaper paste brush works fine here lol ( it's never seen paste mind )

 

[Evil^]

I just blow from the opposite side to ere the dust is getting sucked in XD

I have this compressed air gun thing I use, outside of course.

Air Compressor *** poof poof all gone

Empty 2ltr bottle, cut the middle 2/3rds out, stick some coiled air ducting between the two remaining parts == effective & cheap bellows that last for years.

A couple of times a year, on a dry day I'll take the PC outside and give it a blow-out. I have removable dust fliters, so I blow the worst off and then wash them.

+1, means the dust wont go on everything.

I use a Dyson with this soft brush attachment, with its low profile it gets into most nooks and crannies inside and out of my Dominator CM 690 II Advanced.
